Scotland: Edinburgh to the Highlands to the Isle of Skye to Loch Ness and back to Edinburgh (with a bit of whiskey here n' there)

G'day mates, this is the first chance I've had to catch up with my fanbase (existant or non?) about my recent goings-on. I had a week long break last week and ventured off to Scotland. 5 days in Scotland allowed me to oversee some brilliant architecture, awe-inspiring mountain views, the taste of fresh sea air (and delicious sea food), and intoxicating single malt scotch whiskies. The hospitality of the Scotish is to be commended. They take a genuine interest in their visitors (probably for the company of getting a little tipsy). In all, a great trip, and another check off the list. (I also made a trip with my dad to south-west England - Torquay, Devon, Stonehenge, and the pics will come soon. Stay tuned.)
